The Race For the Ring

I am super impressed right now with the creativity coming out of Fresno. If you haven’t been following us for very long, you need to know I (we) are absolutely convinced that any place you live will only be as enjoyable as you want it to be. There is a lie out there that there is nothing to do in Fresno. The truth is, there is LOTS to do in Fresno, but not really a place to communicate about it. (That’s where we come in, of course.) There is a huge population of people who never get involved in community events. I’m begging you, pleading with you, engage! Get out into the community and try something besides hanging out at Riverpark on a Saturday night. You might find that this city has way more to offer you if you’re willing to give it a shot. That’s probably enough from atop my soapbox so I’ll take a breather to tell you about a really exciting event happening in a couple weeks.

On Nov. 6th there is going to be a city wide text message scavenger hunt. How cool is that?! For $40 you and a partner can get in on the action. Not only will this event be seriously fun, but it’s also a benefit for Fresno First Steps Home, a local charity working towards ending the cycle of homelessness in Fresno. What? That’s not enough motivation for you? How about the fact that they are going to be giving away $25,000 worth of prizes, including a $15,000 diamond ring! Don’t believe me? Check it out for yourself. You can register for the race here.

We’re so excited about this event that we’re going to personally sponsor the first team of racers who comments on this post! Wouldn’t it be cool if an I Heart Fresno reader won that ring! We think it would. If you want more info, make sure you check out their video on youtube.
